AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This new type of plugging agent made from an oily liquid called petroleum jelly or grease improves its properties such as ability to absorb water vapor without losing it when used during wellbore operations. It also helps prevent damage caused by debris that may be found inside formations being drilled through with this tool. Additionally, there are some benefits over existing methods like cementing plugs: they have better resistance against corrosion compared to other materials due to their hydrophobic nature, less weight per unit volume, lower cost, longer lifespan, higher efficiency at stopping cracks while maintaining sufficient hydraulics.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical problem addressed in both the current methods described above relates to improving the efficiency at stopping flow from underground formations during drill operations while also addressing issues related to oil- based drilling mud (OBM) lost circulating that occurs frequently over time without being able to stop it properly. Existing solutions like adding plugging substances may harm healthy areas near producing fields where hydrocarbon contaminated groundwater flows through them.
